Description

Ok so this one is different. No guest. Just me.

I've interviewed so many founders about their failures and mistakes but I realised I've literally never talked about my own. A few friends and guests have called me out on it too so here we are.

I also recap the first ever Fayl Tales Live event at Canva in Sydney, which sold out in four days (still a bit shocked about that). I talk about what worked, what I'd change, and what's coming next with Melbourne.

And then I get into my own failure. A sports recovery product I spent months developing with a chemist who just... ghosted me. No contract. No IP protection. Just blind faith that it would work out. Spoiler: it didn't.

I cover:

• How the Sydney event at Canva sold out in 4 days and what the format looked like
• Why I designed the event to feel like friends chatting, not a panel
• What's different about the Melbourne event at Stone and Chalk
• How the podcast has pivoted from failed startups only to founders actively building
• Why self-funding this has been the best investment I've ever made
• My sports recovery product that died because I trusted without a contract
• The lessons I should have learned way earlier about IP protection

This is me being vulnerable for once. More of this to come.
